Was unable to import data til the developer reached out with a solution.
Response from developer
Hi Amanda, I'm really sorry the import let you down — that's the one thing OpenTV has to get right, and I want to fix this for you personally. When everything imports as "0," it's almost always the type of file, not your data. Please make sure you're using the full GDPR data export from TV Time (the ZIP they email when you request "all your data"), not a screenshot or partial export — the app reads the CSV files inside that specific ZIP. If you're already using that file and it still shows 0, I'd love to look into it with you and get it sorted. You can reach me directly on Discord, Telegram, or Instagram — @mahmoodbashar08 on all three. Send me your export and I'll walk you through it, and if there's a bug with your particular file I'll fix the importer and push an update fast. You shouldn't have to add anything by hand — let's get your full history back. Thanks for giving OpenTV a try. — Mahmood, OpenTV

Just like TV Time!!
Response from developer
Thank you so much — this genuinely means a lot! Feeling "just like TV Time" was the whole goal. 💛 You're on version 1.1.0, our very first release, and a lot has been fixed since. The two you mentioned — the ⋯ menu (so you can edit your lists) and adding/removing favourites — are both fixed in the update that's in Apple's review right now, landing any day. The moment you see the new version, update and you'll be able to edit your favourites and lists. The "not completed in Watch Next but completed when you open it" one is an old counter that can stick after importing — it's already better, and I'm making it correct itself automatically in the very next update. I'm a solo dev and I fix these fast, so please stick around — and once you've updated, let me know if anything's still off. Thank you for giving OpenTV a real try! 🙏 if you still facing same issues you always can dm me on telegram or discord or other my username is mahmoodbashar08
